Susan is having a bakery in the heart of the city and supplies special type of cheese cookies to all the retail outlets based on

the demand. Her cost of making each box of cookies is 15 SAR and she sells it at 18 SAR. The historical data shows that her demand is normally distributed with a mean of 250 boxes per day with a standard deviation of 22 boxes. All those boxes that are not picked up on the same day by the retailers are sold in her own shop at 10 SAR on the next day. What is the optimal stocking level?

Answer:

The optimal stocking level is 243 boxes

Explanation:

In order to calculate the optimal stocking level we would have to calculate the following formula:

optimal stocking level=mean+(Z* standard deviation)

According to the given data we have the following:

mean=250 boxes per day

standard deviation=22 boxes

To calculate the z value we would have to calculate the service level as follows:

service level=shortage/(shortage+overage)

service level=3/(3+5)

service level=0.38

Hence, z value is -0.31

Therefore, optimal stocking level=250 + (-0.31 * 22)

optimal stocking level=243 boxes

The optimal stocking level is 243 boxes

Stars would fit culturally and be an active contributor, while students are culturally fit but not yet a contributor. Land mines are not culturally fit but are active contributor while not yet gone are both not culturally fit and not active contributor.

Your client has been given a trust fund valued at $1.07 million. He cannot access the money until he turns 65 years old, which i
slega [8]

Answer:

285 Months

Explanation:

n = 30 years  × 12 = 360

percent rate = 5.0 % divided by 12 = 0.417.

Now recalling the statement of time value for money,

We have future value = present value × ( 1 + rate) ∧ n

future value = 1, 070,000  × ( 1 + 0.417 )  ∧ 360

future value = 3.33065667 E 60

At age 65, the value 3.33065667 E 60 will be the  present monthly withdrawal at $28,500.

present value of ordinary annuity, = annuity ( 1 - (1 + r) ∧ -n ÷ r

= 3.33065667 E 60  = 28500 (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417

= 3.33065667 E 60 ÷ 28500  = (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417

1.168651462 E 56 = (1 - ( 1 + 0.417) ∧ - n ÷ 0.417

we now introduce logs to determine the value of n

Solving further, we discovered that n= 285.

Therefore, the number of months it will last one he start to withdraw the money is 285 month

ziro4ka [17]

Answer: implicit liabilities will increase.

Explanation:

Implicit liabilities are incurred by government as a result of them having to take care of their citizens. Medicaid is one such liability.

If the government were to expand the percentage of people in the country that are to be covered by medical aid, this would mean that more Medicaid will be paid by the government which means that the implicit liabilities will increase.
